I might be wrong, but I think you have to accept your offer from the application portal and then login here: mywharton.wharton.upenn.edu

Wait so you're saying there isn't a welcome weekend this year for admitted student BEFORE we accept our offer? Feels kinda unfair that we have to accept before the welcome weekend. I honestly feel like I have to be missing something.

It would be best to contact the ad com directly. I haven't been through this for about one year. My recollection was that it was an admitted (and accepted) student meeting. Maybe it is different this year.

ricardorr04 The Wharton MBA is an intensive program and I am afraid you won’t find enough time to also work while doing the Wharton MBA without sacrificing the MBA experience. Are you talking about the Part time or executive MBA program? If you are talking about the Full-time MBA, I think it is advisable to quit work before you start your MBA :)

Do you know if Wharton has any guidelines on what additional mats we can send in from the waitlist? Or are they pretty much open about it? First time applicant:(

youdbee

mats? I guess you are talking about additional updates? I am tagging a few who were also waitlisted to see if they can comment here. nokk4321 vivchong treuthmc2 caffeineoverload Sij4eu

Additionally, you can go through last year's waitlist topic and see what kind of updates the applicants sent. The links for the waitlist topics are below.

Class of 2023 waitlist topic https://gmatclub.com/forum/wharton-wait ... 46247.html
Class of 2022 waitlist topic https://gmatclub.com/forum/wharton-wait ... 12780.html

All the best :)

How does it work if you enroll / pay the deposit but end up dropping out of the process at a later point in time?

elaustriaco

In that case, you will end up losing the deposit that you had made. It happens often though. So, people pay a deposit at a school to be safe so they don't lose their place and if they end up getting admission from a better school, they will forgo the deposit and move to the school of their choice.

Nikhil’s advice above makes a lot of sense. A friend of mine had a different perspective. MBA is means to an end and not an end in itself. If it is advantageous for your career path to do things on the side and can manage your course load, you should give it a try. Maybe you can try for a reduced workload instead of quitting fully. Also a number of classmates might be interning in VC firms / working on startups while in school. Those are jobs in itself.

Any R3 applicants got an interview invite and would want to do a TBD together? I also know a Wharton admit who’d be happy to oversee!
